Day one of the Future of Sustainability Conference, currently underway in Johannesburg, has placed the spotlight on how businesses can drive growth while adopting sustainable practices. Industry leaders from the financial sector say that integrating sustainability into business strategy is no longer optional, but a necessity in today’s rapidly evolving economic landscape.

They emphasise that companies that prioritise environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles are better positioned to remain competitive, attract investment and build long‑term resilience in the face of global climate and market shocks.
